Is this intended to be funny?
This was my reaction as well. Binge Eating Disorder is not a joke, it is clinically recognized eating disorder and the OP's flippant comments around the vacation indulgence indicates that she doesn't actually understand that this is a serious disease that has devastating consequences for those who suffer from it.

This was my experience on vacation a few years ago. I really indulged and ate and drank everything for a week...I didn't hit the gym either. I had huge breakfasts, big lunches and dinners, wine, fruity cocktails, I would have cookies and crepes and waffles with whipped cream everyday and by the end I looked fantastic I actually took some killer progress photos. Maybe it was the carb loading filling out the muscles? Haha I have no idea.. you look great though so I wouldn't worry about it too much, maybe you didn't eat as much as you thought, maybe you were more active and had more energy with all the food, etc.3

It's NOT a joke. I loose self control before I go to bed. Your assuming I'm not serious. I'm 100% serious. Before I went to bed last night I ate a steak, peanut butter cookies, sweet potatoe fries and multigrain chips. That was AFTER I ate all my nessesary meals. It's been so bad that I used to try drinking tons of water to avoid the feeling. But then I have to go pee all night so it's not comfortable.3 -

Then you need to go see a doctor who specializes in treating eating disorders if you really feel this is an uncontrollable, unavoidable situation.14 -
Is there a purge with that binge of yours?8

I was going to ask this. No way you stay that lean with binging every day unless you purge6 -
Immediately after giving birth I was up to 12 huge cupcakes a day (not normal sized cupcakes, they were giant). So yes, I have BED, I have always had it, as a kid my father would make jokes about it going in and out of me immediately, as a little kid I would go to buffets and have 8 FULL SIZED plates. But I'm not referring to normal food having effect on the body, only sugary foods.0

Overeating the same amount of calories of sugary foods has the same effect weight wisr of overeating "normal" food.4 -

Your looking for concern. There is no concern. Just looking for advice on if it's possible to maintain a healthy body with a diet heavy in sugars. If your concerned it's only you... I'm very happy with my diet

Did not know this. Been going to Chinese buffet frequently. Is it possible to need many more calories than the average person?4 -

You admitted you had an eating disorder. That should be concerning to you.15 -

So it's wrong for wanting praise for being fit? That's odd... Ok then.
Eating disorder is not an issue if my body is not having issues. It's only an issue if I'm starving myself or gaining massive amounts of weight. Otherwise it's not important. I'm skinny. It's not an issue. When I balloon up if that ever happens I will make sure to tone it down 13 -

The only hateful thing is when someone comes in attention seeking and lying. It's truly hurtful to all the people who actually struggle with eating disorders. Not a single sign of binging every day and eating massive amounts of food in any of your pictures.
Edited to add this where you claimed the most you ever ate was 2400 and you thought 4000 was massive.... http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/comment/39262414#Comment_3926241420 -

NO IDEA. I do workout religiously, the entire gym knows me. Every single person. They also know my baby, he is a legend here... my son has an extremely high amount of energy, spends 24/7 running around. He is stronger than the 2-4 year olds
One day I hope to work out with him! 7 -

I would say, maybe... for a limited time. Sugar in particular has a damaging effect on the body, emotions, and hormonal system. Keeping up that level of eating might lead you to diabetes or adrenal/thyroid issues.
